Can Roblox Terrain help with optimization against parts?

[pigpen255 (Sunny)]

Greetings devs!

I’m working on a map in attempt to reduce the lag to make it playable for players with lower end devices, and I’m wondering if changing the land parts to Roblox terrain would help with reducing lag?

For context, this is just one corner of the map, and it uses lots of parts and meshes to act as land. And I’m wondering if changing that to Roblox terrain would help in reducing lag.

Thanks for any feedback!

Roblox terrain gets lower quality the farther you are from it, eventually disappearing (it reappears once the player can see it).

If you are having issues then try enabling streaming.

How useful is it to have Streaming Enabled?

Hello. I’m noticing a little bit of lag sometimes on a game I am working on. The game has around 24k parts ATM and I suspect that’s the reason the game is lagging. So how useful is Streaming Enabled with this sort of situation? And do you guys recommend I use it? Here is a picture of my map so you guys can have more context, and I plan on adding one more map at the end.

terrain will be much more laggy and eat a TON of memory, just enable streaming and… oh… the bushes are TRANSPARENT??? Replace normal texture with SurfaceAppearance, this will decrease lag a LOT. Don`t repeat the "isle"s mistake
